PCA Ratio
REF: 5546
Intended use
The PCA Ratio Kit is a clot based assay used in determination of resistance to activated Protein C caused by Factor V Leiden mutation. This APTT based assay creates a clotting time ratio of PCA.APTT/APTT which determines APC resistance.
Main features
- Activates endogenous Protein C (using Protac®)
- Excellent discrimination between APC resistant and normal samples
- Superior result discrimination compared to traditional APC methods
- Compatible with all instrumentation capable of carrying out APTT assays
- Negates Lupus and Heparin interference
